This function translates a source string to a Unicode string and returns the result to each result buffer.

Syntax

HRESULT ConvertINetMultiByteToUnicode(
  LPDWORD lpdwMode,
  DWORD dwSrcEncoding,
  LPCSTR lpSrcStr,
  LPINT lpnMultiCharCount,
  LPWSTR lpDstStr,
  LPINT lpnWideCharCount
);

Parameters

• lpdwMode
  Pointer to a DWORD that is used internally to store conversion context. A caller should provide storage that is initialized with zero at the first call to the function. A caller must not modify the value without calling MLANG service functions.

• dwSrcEncoding
  DWORD that contains the code page identifier value for the multibyte source string.

• lpSrcStr
  Pointer to the multibyte string that is being converted.

• lpnMultiCharCount
  Pointer to the buffer that stores the length of the source string in bytes. If this is NULL, or if the length specified is -1, the function assumes that the source string is null-terminated. When conversion is successful, the function returns to this buffer the number of bytes processed.

• lpDstStr
  Pointer to the string buffer where the conversion result is stored.

• lpnWideCharCount
  Pointer to the buffer that stores the length of the destination buffer as a character count. When the conversion is successful, the function returns the number of characters copied to the lpDstStr buffer.

Return Value

The following table shows the values returned by this function.

Remarks

An application typically calls this function to convert a character stream in an Internet character set to a Microsoft Windows code page, or to convert a Windows code page to a character stream in an Internet character set. This conversion can also be performed by calling the IMultiLanguage::ConvertStringToUnicode method. Note that the size of the multibyte string to be converted is specified in bytes, while the size of the Unicode string returned is given in characters.
